A 13-year-old Macon girl has been identified as the person killed in a single-vehicle wreck Thursday on Interstate 16 Effingham County.

Kaylah Hawkins was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash that also injured three others.

“Initial reports indicate the driver of a white sedan traveling east attempted to avoid a vehicle that had slowed down,” Effingham County Sheriff’s Office spokesman David Ehsanipoor said. The vehicle that slowed was in front of the sedan. The sedan then crashed into a tree.

Hawkins’ brother, Jacob McCullough, 22, of Macon was the driver of the sedan.

Ehsanipoor said the travelers were headed to Tybee Island for vacation.

All passengers were wearing seat belts.

The passengers included McCullough’s fiance’ and a friend.

McCullough’s injuries and that of two passengers were not considered to be life-threatening, Ehsanipoor said.
